Dominion Energy started collecting and storing data through newly installed smart meters. Unfortunately, the legacy system could not keep up with the amount of data coming in and did not have the functionality to deliver actionable insights. Dominion needed quick access to their data along with strong insights to enable proactive decision-making.

Results

Their new cloud solution allows the energy company’s analysts to access data in a fraction of the time that was previously possible. Query run-times have been reduced from a day to minutes. Now that the client can better store, organize, filter and analyze all their data, they can make better predictions of their customers’ energy usage in less time.
